Concept/Character Development Final - 2 Paragraphs

The decisions I made in my design was to make Billy, the main character, look smart but not be be the type to wear lab coats and look like a scientist (like Dexter). He needed to at least look like a normal kid. So far no robots are built becuase he has just started. This would be the beginning of the series. However, the equipment is already there.

I gave him glasses, which automatically makes him look kind of smart. He is the kind of kid that, while being smart, also has some friends. He is not too involved in his research. The equipment, like the TV, he found at the junkyard as well as across his neigborhood. He takes all of it to his garage, which is where his lab is at.
